    Wiring diagram for Passat taillights

    I want to fit a reversing sensor kit to my 2003 V6 Passat.

    To do this I need to know the colour coding for the tailight harness and in particular which wire is ground and which is the reversing light. I've scoured the net but to no avail. On inspecting the harnesses i have:

    On the right-hand side the wires are Red-White-Grey; Green-Black; Red-Black; Red-Blue; Brown; Grey-White.

    On the left-hand side they are Grey; Black-White; Red-Black; Red-Blue; Brown.

    Can any-one help?

    Brown is the earth colour on VWs not sure what colour the reversing light is but it'll be the same on any VW. If you have any wiring diagram you can work it out. Or take the bulb holder out of the lamp and buzz it out.
